  • Scope & Budget: Deliver projects on time and within budget while strictly managing scope creep.

Risk Management & Governance

  • Proactive Gatekeeping: Manage project risks, solve problems, and raise "red flags" to maintain project integrity.
  • Transparent Reporting: Provide clear status updates to the PMO and escalate critical issues to management.

Leadership & Vendor Management

  • Cross-Functional Leadership: Lead internal IT teams (Developers, Architects) in a matrix environment.
  • Vendor Oversight: Manage external vendors and integrators to ensure SLA compliance and delivery quality

Requirements

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Systems, Business Administration, or related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in IT Project Management, specifically focused on Enterprise Applications
  • Strong knowledge of both Waterfall and Agile/Scrum methodologies, with the ability to adapt the approach based on project needs.
  • Proficiency in project management tools (e.g., MS Project, Jira, ServiceNow, Smartsheet).
